'06 Cornflower Shoulder (Balenciaga)


This is my current go to Clutch that I really love. It holds a lot of stuff and, as most Balenciagas, looks so much smaller IRL than it actually is. I came close to selling this little cutie about 1 year ago and am so glad I didn't because I would have regretted it dearly. Hope you enjoy the pics:)

Things I Am Currently Waiting For :)

As most of you ladies know, the anticipation of waiting for a new Slice of Heaven is half of the fun (even though the wait can be painful sometimes :)
I am currently awaiting:
1. '06 Truffle Balenciaga City
2. Alexander McQueen Magenta/Black Skull Scarf
3. Hermes H Belt with Palladium Hardware in Tan and Black


I am also impatiently waiting for my '05 Turquoise Work to return from the LMB Spa (this is my sweet friend Irene's :)

My Current Wishlist :)


1. '07 Black Work

2. White Bal Pochette/Oval


'05 BubbleGum Pink City-Every Girl Loves a Pink Bag!:)



I love this cute BubbleGum Pink Balenciaga! This bag was my second encounter with '05 Bal leather but this was the encounter that got me HOOKED! I remember I picked up a friend of mine the day I first used this bag and she picked it up when she entered the car and was like: OMG- this bag feels like silk!! It truly does, ladies! '05 Balenciaga leather is without a doubt the best of the best!! '05 also has the best colors ever, including BubbleGum, Apple Green, Turquoise and Magenta. Nothing really compares to these colors and combined with the silk leather- a dream! Here are pics of the gorgeous '05 BubbleGum City that got me hooked! Enjoy! :)

'06 Black City (Balenciaga) aka the eternally Classic BBag! :)!



Most Balenciaga lovers would agree that a Black First and Black City are the classical BBags. Every girl has to have one. My first BBag was actually a smooshy '05 Black First but as soon as I got my Black City it was clear to me that this is the perfect day-to-night BBag for me. The First is just too small for my needs and the City holds quite a bit yet can also be worn clubbing  and look surprisingly small when you only take a wallet, Coin Purse (which holds cell and a bit of make up) and house keys. Hence I have three cities now (Black, Rouge Vif and BubbleGum) and a 4th one in the way (Truffle- can't wait!:). I wore this bag day-in-day- out in NYC when I worked there for 6 months and also wore it to uni a lot during my first semester and still wear it quite often and it still looks amazing in my opinion. I even took the tassel at the front off (I ALWAYS take the tassels off the 'zipper ears' immediately when i get a bag and tuck the 'ears' in!!) and wore it to a job interview with a very chic outfit the other day and got the job! :) So it has also brought be good luck! :)In addition, it feels amazingly soft and thick and I will definitely keep this gorgy baby forever! Hope you enjoy the pics! :)

'08 Magenta Coin Purse (Balenciaga)




Love this little cutie! :)

'05 Apple Green Balenciaga Day





The color is TDF and the leather is incredibly soft! Love this gorgy bag! Enjoy the pics!:)

Hermes Palladium Pink Clic Clac <3



This was my first Hermes purchase ever and I am still very much in love with this gorgeous Pink Hermes Clic Clac. Hermes craftsmanship is amazing and it just looks fabulous- I get a lot of compliments on it and wear it nearly every single day. This gorgeous bracelet was definitely worth every penny! :)

'06 Rouge Vif City (the Best Bal Red Ever!)


This gorgeous '06 Rouge Vif City is one of my all time favorites. The red is such a deep berry red with blue undertones and the leather is just divine. It makes every outfit a classic and provides a gorgeous yet chic pop of color to any outfit. I think this will be one of my three main work bags along with my beloved '06 Black City (people still don't believe it is an '06 because of its incredible leather) and a '06 Truffle City which should be in the mail to me soon. Anyway, this gorgeous bag will always stay with me and I don't wear it very often but when I do, I fall in love over and over again and can't stop looking at it/touching it :)

'08 Magenta Work (Balenciaga) aka My Current 'Go-to-Bag'





I am madly in love with my '08 Magenta Work! I really liked it when I got it and was very excited when I opened the box (I also got a matching Coin Purse from my lovely fiance for V-Day:) but am now seriously in love with this bag. I personally prefer bags when they are more broken in (at least in context with Balenciagas- I think Hermes lovers feel the same way about their bags, too). My '08 Magenta is now beautifully broken in and incredibly soft, thick and dark. I am so glad to have gotten one from the 2nd batch as the first batch of  '08 Magentas was quite light, veiny and dry. Enjoy the pics of my currently most loved BBag! :) 

'05 Apple Green Coin Purse (Balenciaga)


I really love this little cutie! When it arrived an I opened the box my heart literally skipped a beat because te color is so pretty and bright. In addition to that, as all Balenciaga fans know, '05 has the silkiest leather and this little cutie will definitely stay with me forever :)

Welcome to My Blog! :)

Hi ladies and gents,

thank you so much for having a look at my blog! :) I love all the pretty little things that make one's everyday life sweeter. That is exactly what this blog will be about- my little slices of heaven <3

My absolutely favorite brand without a doubt is Balenciaga. I have collected 11 bags and accessories during the past year and am still lusting after more. I will try to post pictures of at least one of them each day and write a few things about them. Maybe I'll even convert you into a Balenciaga fan, too :)

I also absolutely love Hermes and am currently lusting after this gorgeous Reversible Palladium Plated Hermes Belt and am planning on making that my next purchase :) So far I only have a Pink PM Palladium Bracelet from Hermes and will post pictures of it soon, too.

I also really like watches but have not gotten too crazy about them yet. I have a Gucci watch and a Raymond Weil Tango which I love so much that I practically wear it every day.

I also really like jewelry, shoes and nice make up but definitely spend most of my money on nice handbags.

In context with clothes I really love ZARA as they always have something that suits and fits me perfectly. I really like Miss Sixty, Diesel and Mavi for jeans and CUE for suits and formal dresses. I like Steve Madden, Nine West and Tony Bianco for shoes but will definitely invest in Laboutins and Manolos one day- I just can't bring myself to invest $700+ in something that I'm going to be walking on an that will be touching the dirty asphalt but I think I will one day :P

Of course I also want to own a Hermes Birkin one day. I am not too crazy about Kellys and would be very happy with a classic Black Birkin. I think I am going to wait with that purchase for a while because I am certain that I will enjoy it a lot more once I am around 30+ because I would currently be too paranoid and scared of damaging it :P 

I hope you'll enjoy my blog and feel free to leave comments or message me :)
